Hi there I’m Chengjin (you can call me CJ or Violet) from southern China. I’m a digital nomad, I work remotely as a real estate consultant.

I’m a sports lover and I go to the gym several times a week trying to keep fit and lead a healthy lifestyle. I also love traveling, cooking, outdoor activities, tech, history and so on.

I think my greatest strength is treating people with sincerity.

Feel free to reach out. Even if I can’t host, I can still show you around if my schedule allows.

Please read “My Home” section before you send me a request to stay

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I took a trip to the US in Feb 2019. That was my first time to USA and I didn’t want to be just a tourist. I wanted to meet people from different cultures and experience different lifestyles . Moreover, I’m an open minded person who likes meeting new people and showing them around the city I live in.
